Dear Raja,

In my view, Merchant exporter not required to take Excise Registration since he is not having any plant and machinery except an office and who is generally in possession of some export orders on his name for which he places order on the manufacturers to execute such export orders by issuing CT-1 against his bond executed before his Maritime Commissioner /Jurisdictional Excise Authority.

Excise Registration is generally required for a manufacturer/dealer or a warehouse. If the said Merchant exporter is intend to carry out business as a Dealer , he can apply for such dealer Registration by giving details of his office address.
